This is one of my F1 cars 1/20 by Tamiya. It was on OOB built and painted with a  Tamiya enamels I mixed to come close to a british racing green It was a typical Tamiya built easy and precise.

That's a nice, clean build. Looks great.

I thought Tamiya had a British Green spray, right out of the can? However you mixed it, it looks the part, though. How long did it take you?

It an easy built really so it did not take me long to finish it. The painting took most of the time because I airbrushed several thin color coats and a couple of clear coats. I gave up on spray cans mainly for ecological reasons and I could'nt get the finish I like with it because it's hard to control. I work basically with an airbrush and I use it in practically all the parts that has to be painted even the tiniest of parts. Thanks guys!
